The Andrews, Betty, and Jughead walked out. I walked behind FP. 

Sheriff Keller came out seconds later.

"L/N, come with me." He said.
"So you interrogate me, then you go after my-" Jughead gets cut off.
"Y/N go with him, don't say anything, I'm calling your mother." Mr. Andrews mumbled.

I was dragged into the interrogation room. 

"Where were you on July 4th?" He said authoritatively. 

"Reminds me of those cliche movies with the cop and the suspect," I answered looking around the grey room.

"It's not a time for jokes. Y/N, you were close to Jason before he died. You were his sisters best friend which makes you a suspect." He said.

"Yeah, his sister and grandmother were the only people in that family who loved him. If your looking for murder suspects go to the least expected, and I was with Kevin and Betty. Betty was getting ready to meet an old friend. I was nowhere near Jason that day. During the morning we had a sleepover. I never left the Cooper house. Besides what motive do I have?"

"I have no hatred for the Blossoms unlike half the people in this to-" I was interrupted. Soon my mother boomed through the door.

"Y/N say nothing else. Keller! What have I told you about unsupervised interrogation with minors?" She yelled.

"Sweetie go outside." She said kindly to me. I could hear the yelling as I left. When I got outside I saw Alice Cooper. I walked up to her, she put an arm around me.

"Serpents always stick together." She whispered. I smiled at her.

"No one knows right? Not anyone on the North side?" I looked at her.

"Not even Detective Betty. I left those days, you're still in it." She said. I nodded.

"Sadly, once a serpent-" She started.

"Always a serpent." I finish. I kept looking out the window when we were driving, trees, rain. Nothing interesting, Betty was talking about how FP was trying to work things out, but I sorta just ignored it, I mainly focused on what was to become of me. When Alice dropped me off at my mom's, I waited on the curb and waved goodbye. When she was out of sight I made my way back to the southside.

I got texts from Archie, about how Jughead was staying with him for awhile. If felt good to know he was alright, but I feel betrayed. He cheated on me. One thing I always thought Jughead Jones was incapable of. I was knocked out of thought when there was a knock at the door, my dad walked in with a sly grin.

"I'm going to the bar. Will you be okay on your own?" He asked. I nodded in response. When I was sure he was gone, I let it all seek in, first the crying, then the sobs, it all just kept happening. I fell asleep eventually.


I slammed my hand on the alarm. 5:00 it read in red letters. I got up took a shower, got dressed and packed my things for an amazing Saturday. When I walked into the small living room,  the smell of alcohol really hit me, that's when I saw my dad, passed out on the couch. I sighed, grabbing a blanket and putting it over his unconscious body.  I walked out the trailer door, holding to make sure it didn't slam. The damp air was soothing. I walked down the sidewalk, putting in an earbud, hoping it would make my walk go by faster. I made it to the construction yard just as Archie pulled up. I walked up behind them, I've known about Andrews problem with work, so I figured while I was there I could help.

"I wanna help too," I spoke out. They all turned toward me. Hermione smiled.

"The more the merrier!" She said. I grabbed a hard hat and got to work. Surprisingly to them, I am stronger then they think. We moved rocks for most of the day. I worked on paperwork with Hermione for a while.

"Great work guys, hard hats in the bin, sodas in the fridge," Fred said marking down the work we had accomplished. We all sat around for about five minutes when we heard loud thuds and yelling. We all got up and ran out. Moose was getting a beating from two guys with crowbars.

"Moose, you okay?" Someone said. Moose tried getting up.

"Stay down. We'll get you some help. Who did this?" Fred said while looking Moose over.

"No, clue. But they said as long as we keep working, they'll come back." Moose said. We all stayed silent. I pulled a cloth out of my bag, kneeling down to Moose's level. I held to the bloody spot on his head, he visibly winced.

Soon thankfully Sheriff Keller came, I stayed their tending to Moose. The guys were talking among themselves about what happened. Sherriff Keller parked and got out.

"What the hell happened here?" He asked.

"Well Moose over there, he caught a couple guys working over my equipment with a crowbar, and they got the drop on him." Fred said.

 "Who were they, vandals?" He asked.

"Cliff Blossom has made it very clear he would love nothing more than to see this go belly-up," Fred replied.

"I dought Blossom is gonna hire some thugs to bust up your site and beat up some teenagers." Keller replied. Archie stood quickly.

"Maybe it wasn't him. I mean this is Serpent territory right? Maybe it was them, pissed that they had to leave because of the project." Archie said.

"Serpents wouldn't do this," I said.

"When I worked at the drive-in, the Serpents never bothered me." Jughead said.

"See any snake tattoos or anything on their jackets?" Keller asked.

"It happened pretty fast." Moose said.

"I'll talk to Blossom but I don't think I'll get anywhere." He replied.

"Thanks, Sheriff." Fred said. Kevin went with his father into the cruiser. Archie gave the rest of us a ride home.

I was going to go to Polly's baby shower.  I figured I'd get her an outfit, something non-binary so it wouldn't matter if it was a girl or a boy. I'm worried to find out what's gonna happen when Alice goes.

I made my way down the street to the trailer park. Figured I'll need a good sleep to deal with the Blossoms and the Coopers.
